Yes. Guess what, you have to live with those people and you have to convince them to vote on your policies.

If you're going to sit there nagging them over stupid rare occurrence shit and piss them off you don't get your policies. So go ahead and waste political capital pissing off voters with inconsequential shit that pisses them off.

Pragmatic politics is dead replaced by whiney absolutism.

Edit: the best part is even if you go ahead and get to piss everyone off is it'll never ever be enforced except in certain high traffic intersections.
